"When The Stories of John Cheever was originally published, it became an immediate national bestseller and won the Pulitzer Prize. In the years since, it has become a classic. Here are sixty-one stories that chronicle the lives of what has been called "the greatest generation." From the early wonder and disillusionment of city life in "The Enormous Radio" to the surprising discoveries and common mysteries of suburbia in "The Housebreaker of Shady Hill" and "The Swimmer," Cheever tells us everything we need to know about "the pain and sweetness of life.""
"Dans ces quinze nouvelles, les personnages de Cheever souffrent et leur mal-être est une énigme. Les faux-semblants de la classe moyenne américaine sont raillés.--[Memento]."
"Verhalen over de verveling die toeslaat in gegoede forensenstadjes in het noord-oosten van de Verenigde Staten."

"Dans ces quinze nouvelles, les personnages de Cheever souffrent et leur mal-être est une énigme. Les faux-semblants de la classe moyenne américaine sont épinglés."
"Drôles et mélancoliques, cocasses et tendres, ces nouvelles mettent en scène joyeux ivrognes et clowns tristes, poursuivant jusqu'à l'absurde leurs rêves fragiles d'absolu, de jeunesse, de passions éternelles."

"Seize nouvelles qui donnent à voir l'univers des banlieues cossues de la Côte Est des Etats-Unis, les cocktails, les plaisirs de la chair portés à une hauteur presque spirituelle, mais aussi la mélancolie, le mal-être dont souffrent les personnages, en quête de quelque chose qu'ils ne savent pas nommer mais dont l'absence leur est insupportable."
"Une Amérique d'après-guerre puritaine, semi-dépressive, tourmentée, une classe moyenne dont les structures familiales et sociales tendent à se désagréger : telle est l'Amérique de la côte Est que dépeignent ces seize nouvelles publiées des années 30 aux années 70 dans le "New Yorker"."
